Hull News and Form

The Tigers started the season with an away defeat at Swansea, but have steadied the ship since then. They took a home win over Reading before an away draw at Brentford on the weekend. So there is the reason to be confident in this one heading back to home soil where their one win so far has happened for the season. Jarrod Bowen has opened the scoring Hull’s last two games and Hull have netted first in all three fixtures played for the season. All three of Hull’s league games this season have seen both teams score as well, so there are some decent betting trends to look at there.

Blackburn News and Form

Rovers found themselves in some early trouble this season. They suffered back to back defeats in their opening games, going down against Charlton and Fulham. Blackburn conceded exactly two goals in both of those games. But they pulled off something of a surprise on the weekend as they banked a 1-0 home win over Middlesbrough. Rovers had their troubles last season away from Ewood Park. They produced a W6 D5 L12 record on their Championship travels during the campaign. Blackburn are yet to score from open play this season, one of their goals was from a Charlton own goal and then they scored a penalty against Middlesbrough on the weekend.

Who will win – Hull v Blackburn Predictions

Tough game to call with neither of these having found their stride yet. But because Blackburn have been having a few more struggles than the Tigers, combined with the fact that Rovers had a poor away season in the last campaign, it’s a narrow home win that looks the right fit.
